BULLETIN COVERS: (Figures 1 and 2)
New 1-2 and reverse band assemblies that do not require selective band apply pins. A new manufacturing process machines the area where the case
anchor pins contact the band. With this new process, all the 1-2 bands are the same size and all the reverse bands are the same size. With the bands all
the same size, selective band apply pins are not required. Now, there is no need to measure for selective band apply pins for the entire normal service life
of the band.
SERVICE PROCEDURE:
Do not measure for selective band apply pins - this will be removed from the labor time allowance for all applicable 1991 labor K-codes. If replacing a
1984 through 1991 model year transaxle 1-2 or reverse band, it is not necessary to measure for selective band apply pin(s), provided that the band
service package contains an instruction sheet about the non-selective band apply pin band.
IMPORTANT:If ordering a new 1-2 or reverse band, the correct band apply pin must be used with the band. The correct band apply pin is not included
with the new band service package(s) (that includes an instruction sheet about the nonselective band apply pin band). The proper band
apply pin must be ordered separately.
NOTICE: If replacing a 1-2 band with the new 1-2 band listed in this bulletin, the 1-2 band stop (on models so equipped) must be removed prior to
installing the band. The 1-2 band stop, if not removed, would cause the new 1-2 band to remain partly applied, distressing the 1-2 band.
